See The Beauty

Today, during a little meditation
(because I was too tired to get sweaty),
these words just grabbed hold of my heart:

Today, see the beauty.

What we see in every day
is seen by choice.
We can see the ugly and the hate
and the bitterness and the lies.
We can see the chaos and the vile
and the sorrow and the pain.
Or we can see the simple beauty
in the jasmine and its aroma;
mama bird checking on baby bird;
fresh veggies in the garden;
an older couple walking hand in hand;
toddlers splashing in puddles;
singing along to your favorite tune;
laughter in its heartiest form;
rainbows after a storm;
the chatter of a wooded stroll;
the soothing sounds of a sandy seat;
children on the playground;
a kind and selfless deed;
a put-you-back-together hug;
the comfort of silence;
the feeling of positive production
and purpose;
the simple solitude of 
getting lost in the Word;
raindrops;
tail wags.
So very many things.
Choose wisely.
